We divide 52645317 by 421
Let's see how many times 421 fits into 52645317.

On to step 1:
421 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 421

Going ahead to step 2:
421 goes into 52 0 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 0 from 52.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 526 / 421

Step 3:
The number 421 fits into 526 1 times, leaving a remainder of 105.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 421 from 526 and we're left with 105.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 105, then carry on: 1054 / 421

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 1054 by 421, we get 2 with a remainder of 212.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 842 from 1054, we get 212.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 212, then carry on: 2125 / 421

On to step 5:
2125 divided by 421 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.0
Subtract 2105 from 2125 to get 20.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 203 / 421

Step 6:
If we divide 203 by 421, we get 0 and a remainder of 203.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1250.0
If we subtract 0 from 203, we get 203.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 203 and repeat the process: 2031 / 421

Step 7:
2031 divided by 421 is 4 with a remainder of 347.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12504.0
If we take 1684 away from 2031, we end up with 347.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 347, then carry on: 3477 / 421

Moving on to step 8:
3477 divided by 421 is 8 with a remainder of 109.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125048.0
Deduct 3368 from 3477 and we're left with 109.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1090, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
421 can be fit into 1090 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 248.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125048.2
If we subtract 842 from 1090, we get 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
2480 divided by 421 is 5 with a remainder of 375.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125048.25
Deduct 2105 from 2480 and we're left with 375.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 421 fits into 3750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 382.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125048.258
The remainder is 382 after subtracting 3368 from 3750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3820, and continue the process.

Step 12:
421 goes into 3820 9 times with a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 125048.2589
Deduct 3789 from 3820 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
421 can be fit into 310 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 310.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 125048.2589
Subtracting 0 from 310 leaves us with 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 3100 by 421, we get 7 with a remainder of 153.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125048.258907
Subtract 2947 from 3100 to get 153.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
421 can be fit into 1530 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 267.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 125048.2589073
Subtract 1263 from 1530 to get 267.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2670, and continue the process.

Step 16:
When dividing 2670 by 421, we get 6 with a remainder of 144.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 125048.25890736
Subtract 2526 from 2670 to get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Our division results in 125048.25890736 with a remaining 1.44e-07.
